Can you elaborate what are the documents to be accompanied on the test day?
They only asked for previous passports, PR card and COPR, and two IDs. I have however brought many other documents with me including university transcripts, proof of employment, utility bills and leases. During the interview, I was asked about my employment during my stay in Canada so I presented the proof of employment to the agent who examined it and add it to my file. Apart from that, he did not ask for any other document but I think being prepared is better than getting any request for more documents after the interview.

I do not know where is my COPR. I have Landing paper and PR Card. I was provided with COPR at the time of issuance of immigration visa. Is that required now?

what is a COPR?
Confirmation Of Permanent Residence. When an immigrant is approved for permanent residence in Canada, they receive a Confirmation of Permanent Residence document. An immigration officer at the port of entry or a CIC office signs and dates this document when permanent residence is finally granted.

Yes it is the carbon paper you got when you landed. BTW this is a very important document that you will need even after getting citizenship.
